Rebana (Indonesian frame drums) are simple handheld drums. Some have jingles like a tambourine. They are made and played in various sizes in different parts of Indonesia. What they all have in common is that they're held in one hand and played with the other, using only two or three different tones per drum. 

Each player has a simple part to play, but the music (the magic!) happens when the different parts interlock and amazing drum rhythms and melodies emerge. It's a way of making music that relies on a group of players all listening to and interacting with each other - lots of fun for all! 

Optionally add some simple stepping patterns for an additional challenge.  Rebana is also used as accompaniment for songs.
